Travel Carrier

Do you have a smaller pup that can fit on your next flight? You may want to invest in a travel carrier for your dog, so they can fit by your feet on the plane. Wild One offers a dog travel carrier in a variety of colors such as spruce, black, and tan. It’s comfortable with breathable mesh walls and an interior cushion that folds out to be a comfortable dog bed. This is perfect if the hotel or Airbnb you’re staying in doesn’t have a dog bed for your dog to rest on—this carrier does the job for them. Plus, this bag is airline compliant, so you don’t have to be worried about being turned away at the gate.

Backseat Cover

Does your dog love to get the backseat of your car all messy after a long day of play at the dog park or dog beach? Set up Active Pets’ Extra Durable Back Seat Cover in your car for travel this summer. They’re specifically designed to fit any truck or SUV’s backseat. Most importantly, this cover ensures the safety of your dog with a non-slip bottom so your dog isn’t sliding around in the backseat.

Water Bowl

The best dog bowls are portable! Check out Highwave’s AutoDogMug that is available in a variety of 6 colors. Fill up the bottle with fresh, clean water and squeeze it so the water fills at the connected bowl to keep your pup hydrated during travel. It comes with a removable strap, so you can use it as a handle or a strap to attach to your bag.

Dog Wipes

Looking to keep your dog clean on the go? EarthBath offers all kinds of hygienic products from Tushy Wipes and Eye Wipes to keep your dog looking their best when you may not have a bathtub or groomer around the corner. EarthBath products only incorporate the safest, finest ingredients found in nature that are people tested and pet approved!

Dog Seatbelt

Does your dog like to jump from the backseat to the front seat while you’re driving? It can give you quite the scare when your dog is in motion while you’re trying to focus on driving. To ensure your dog stays in the backseat, try a Direct To Seatbelt Bungee Tether from Kurgo! This dog seatbelt easily clicks into the seatbelt slot in your car and can attach to your dog’s harness. As it’s bungee webbing, it can stretch enough to give your antsy pup some wiggle room if needed.

Waste Bags

Whether you’re staying at a campground or in a hotel, it’s extremely important to pick up your dog’s waste. Bring Doggy Do Good’s Biodegradable & Compostable Poop Bags along for the ride! You don’t have to feel guilty about using Doggy Do Good products since they’re 100% biodegradable and certified compostable, which makes them an excellent choice for the environment as they break down in only 90 days!

First Aid Kit

You can prepare a dog first aid kit yourself! Items such as tweezers, gauze, and hydrogen peroxide are just some of the supplies you will need in your kit. Looking for a full list of items? Check out Preventive Vet’s dog first aid kit DIY blog

Don’t forget to bring along Pet Releaf’s Canna Care CBD Topical for Dogs in your first aid kit. This topical is a great product for helping relieve bug bites or unexpected skin irritations on your trip.

Foldable Pet Ramp

Do you have a senior dog that has trouble getting in and out of the car? Consider purchasing a foldable pet ramp, especially if you are on a road trip where you’ll be in the car for much of the commute. PetSafe’s Happy Ride Telescoping Dog Ramp is light, yet extremely strong as it can hold up to 400 pounds. Now you don’t have to worry about carrying your pup in and out of the car, they can easily access the car all by themselves.

Portable Dog Bed

We always want our pet companions to be comfortable, especially during travel when they’re not around their usual surroundings. RuffWear’s Mt. Bachelor Pad Portable Dog Bed may be the best fit for your pup. It can easily be rolled up and packed up, so they can use it in the car, at a campsite, or at the hotel you’re staying at. It’s available in medium and large sizes depending on your pet’s size!
